The 'Shocking Secret' of Marvel's THE PATRIOT In Next AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D.

Photos from next week's episode of ABC's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. have been released by the network. Titled "The Patriot," the episode's synopsis promises to reveal "a shocking secret" about the newly-minted S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Jeffrey Mace (played by Jason O'Mara); if you recall, in comic books Mace is better known as the patriotic hero the Patriot - not-so-concidentally, the title of this episode.

"Separated from their team, Coulson and Mack discover a shocking secret about Mace, leaving all of S.H.I.E.L.D. in a precarious position," reads the synopsis.

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. airs Tuesdays on ABC.
